David Bowie is Thinking about Retiring

Written By: MŮDI

David Bowie announces that he is thinking about calling it quits with touring.

His answers is "I'm Comfortable." Which in my opinion is a honest answer from the legendary rock musician. Not only has Bowie changed the sound of rock he has also influnced and exposed musicians who never would have had the chance to be seen by a normal audience or mainstream. David Bowie is a staple and a modern day hero to anyone who is young or old. I was lucky enough to see three of David Bowies tours (Glass Spider, Outside Tour and the Heathen Tour). I'm not old just lucky that I had cool parents. Bowie has been on an unannounced hiatus for the last six years — but his quote to the Times confirms there will be no new Bowie shows in the near future. This is sad news but I am sure most Bowie Fans would understand. Bowie a couple years back went through some medical issues or basically suffered a heart attack, so I am sure this was a wake up call to cool-it-down, but David Bowie still made surprise appearances onstage with Arcade Fire, Alicia Keys and Pink Floyd's David Gilmour. I honestly think Bowie will always find a niche or find something cool or new in anything he does because, "that is what he does" "he is David Bowie!"

For now, looks like Bowie and Iman will enjoy living a somewhat normal life. In the meantime Bowie Say's "He draws, paints and collects 20th-century British art," the Times piece says." From alien to art rocker David Bowie will never be forgotten or dismissed as a has-been. Rest assure David Bowie Mr. Ziggy Stardust will not leave us hanging. I'm sure he will squeeze out a couple more studio albums before his spaceship returns.

WHAT IS FEVER?

Before you cooled out, before your flashes were hot, before you disqoed, and well before the days of the hipster rsvp, there was FEVER.

FEVER was started many moons ago at The Cavern by DJ MŮDI with a shitty Peavy PA system, one home stereo bass speaker (that would cut off when it got too hot), and a laptop that crashed two years later. DJ MŮDI can say that he was one of the first DJs in Dallas to play his sets through his laptop before the hipster revolution caught on to this. MŮDI decided to change the name of the night up to UP! because the owner didn't like FEVER. After one year UP! became FEVER again, and the rest is history. Well, almost. We haven't even touched on Macho yet.

DJ MŮDI kept it going for about 1 year before bringing on his partner DJ EL MACHO. He invited Macho in for a guest appearance in the summer of 2005, and a remarkable partnership was born. Soon people caught wind, and the duo was moved to Fridays. MŮDI and Macho left The Cavern for Fallout Lounge in the summer of 2006 for a three year run of legendary nights which put Fallout Lounge on the map. MŮDI & Macho decided it was time to shift gears in July of 2009, and brought the night to a close. But like Brett Favre, they just don't know when to say "enough is enough". So, FEVER returned for a short run at a spot in Oak Cliff called Tradewinds Social Club. While the FEVER name might disappear, you can be sure that MŮDI and Macho will still be seen around town playing music that people like to hear.
